## Abstrac-Electrically heated filaments are frequently used to study catalytic processes. In this respect the phenomenon of propagation of nonlinear thermal waves which separate regions of different temperatures on an iron filament heated by an electrical current in H2 atmosphere has been theoret

✦ Synopsis
Communicated by H. Neunzert
The steady-state equations for a charged gas or fluid consisting of several components, exposed to an electric field, are considered. These equations form a system of strongly coupled, quasilinear elliptic equations which in some situations can be derived from the Boltzmann equation. The model uses the duality between the thermodynamic fluxes and the thermodynamic forces. Physically motivated mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions are prescribed. The existence of generalized solutions is proven. The key of the proof is a transformation of the problem by using the entropic variables, or electro-chemical potentials, which symmetrize the equations. The uniqueness of weak solutions is shown under the assumption that the boundary data are not far from the thermal equilibrium. A general uniqueness result cannot be expected for physical reasons. 1998 B. G. Teubner Stuttgart-John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
